EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from the 1977 Formula One World Championship, we witness a bittersweet moment for Loris Kessel as he makes his final Grand Prix appearance. Determined to qualify the Jolly Club of Switzerland Apollon/Williams FW03/Iso IR3, Kessel's four-year-old car struggles to keep up with its competitors on the Monza circuit. As the image freezes this pivotal moment in time, we can almost feel Kessel's determination and passion radiating through his helmet. However, fate had other plans for him that day. During qualifying, disaster strikes as the aging vehicle succumbs to a devastating crash beyond repair. This poignant photograph serves as a reminder of both triumph and tragedy within motorsport. It captures not only Kessel's last attempt at glory but also symbolizes the end of an era for this particular car model. Never again would it grace the racetrack or be witnessed by adoring fans. The Italian Grand Prix at Monza was chosen as the backdrop for this unforgettable scene, adding historical significance to an already impactful image. As viewers gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, they are transported back to September 11th, 1977 – a day etched forever in racing history.
